Lyrics

Let's sip another glass of wine
In our garden in the moonshine
Let the shimmering soothe
The battle with your blue
Let's smoke another cigarette

Oh girlfriend, I still remember your dreams
A simple house, a couple of kids
You married young in a fairytale dress
But the boy you loved never grew up a man
Now life is nothing like the dreams you had
